More quotes by William Shakespeare
Misery acquaints a man with strange bedfellows.
William Shakespeare
Liberty plucks justice by the nose The baby beats the nurse, and quite athwart Goes all decorum.
William Shakespeare
I knew when seven justices could not take up a quarrel, but when the parties were met themselves, one of them thought but of an If, as, 'If you said so, then I said so' and they shook hands and swore brothers. Your If is the only peacemaker much virtue in If.
William Shakespeare
What the great ones do, the less will prattle of
William Shakespeare
So will I turn her virtue into pitch, And out of her own goodness make the net That shall enmesh them all.
William Shakespeare
Love laughs at locksmiths.
William Shakespeare
Is man no more than this? Consider him well. Thou ow'st the worm no silk, the beast no hide, the sheep no wool, the cat no perfume. Here's three on's are sophisticated. Thou art the thing itself unaccommodated man is no more than such a poor, bare, forked animal as thou art.
William Shakespeare
Oft expectation fails, and most oft there where most it promises and oft it hits where hope is coldest, and despair most fits.
William Shakespeare
Hanging and wiving goes by destiny.
William Shakespeare
A tardiness in nature, Which often leaves the history unspoke, That it intends to do.
William Shakespeare
My age is as a lusty winter, frosty but kindly.
William Shakespeare
Though I be but prince of Wales, yet I am the king of courtesy.
William Shakespeare
Shall I compare thee to a summer's day? Thou art more lovely and more temperate: Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May, And summer's lease hath all too short a date . . .
William Shakespeare
For conspiracy, I know not how it tastes, though it be dished For me to try how.
William Shakespeare
Moderate lamentation is the right of the dead, excessive grief the enemy to the living.
William Shakespeare
If we are mark'd to die, we are enow To do our country loss and if to live, The fewer men, the greater share of honour. God's will! I pray thee wish not one man more.
William Shakespeare
For this relief, much thanks
William Shakespeare
Instinct is a great matter. I was now a coward on instinct.
William Shakespeare
Who knows himself a braggart, Let him fear this for it will come to pass That every braggart will be found an ass.
William Shakespeare
Every cloud engenders not a storm.
William Shakespeare
